transit is not selling traction motors, so if you were able to get one for whatever purpose you have in mind, it would be a special arrangement of some kind. Also a word to the wise, a DC traction motor such as that is extremely heavy, weighing several thousand pounds, so it is something that would require a highly rated crane/hoist and slings to load/unload, as well as a serious vehicle to transport it since even pickup suspensions are not rated to carry something that heavy. Also I don't know your housing setup, but that's not something that really would have a place in any home other than maybe in a garage on a cement floor. It is very heavy and unwieldy, and frankly may even be a bit dangerous to have around due to its weight. Don't know what you're planning on using it for, but just letting you know what would be involved. If you're still interested...good luck, although I can't say convincing someone at TA to sell it to you will be easy...
